Today, Ubisoft announced that Assassin’s Creed Syndicate will receive a free 60 FPS console patch update for PS5 and Xbox Series X/S on November 19th. In addition to this update, players will experience the game in full 4K resolution across both consoles. The brief trailer is embedded above while more details are included below:
Set in 1868, Assassin’s Creed Syndicate follows a pair of Assassin twins, Jacob and Evie Frye, exploring London and building up a gang – the Rooks – to take the city back from Templar domination. The most modern-set Assassin’s Creed to date (present-day storylines notwithstanding), it lets players wield concealed weapons including kukris, cane swords, revolvers, and brass knuckles, and use a wrist-mounted rope launcher to rapidly climb London’s huge, intricately detailed buildings and launch ziplines across its broad avenues. Players can also take full advantage of the carriages that rumble through the streets, leading the Templar-controlled Blighter gang on high-speed chases (and jumping to the roof to fight any pursuers who try to climb aboard).
We praised Assassin’s Creed Syndicate in our review 9 years ago and it’s still regarded as a great entry in the series. If you check out the game or have plans to revisit it, please let us know your thoughts below.
